[2004, 20h2] Diasabling Internet explorer in group policy

[ZFarnworth_geek]

Hi all.

 

Hope everyone is ok.

 

I’ve successfully deployed windows 10 to all my machines. And so far no hiccups yet [emoji4]

 

But I’ve been looking at disabling internet explorer and wanted to know if anyone has managed to do it without additional software or anything like that to disable it. Because I know sims is a pain when internet explorer is disabled.

 

Thanks,

Zak

So, you don't want user execution, but do want software like SIMS to be able to load it... bit hard I would say as everything is running under the user context. I thought SIMS actually loaded up the default browser though when it was needed.

This should disable IE but allow enterprise mode in Edge.

 

It's worth a test.

Thanks I’ll have a look at that

Well I’ve had bad experiences with sims and certain browsers and disabling them eg: internet explorer can cause problems. And I wanted to see what anyone else may have experienced.

 

Cheers guys
